A negative show plunge proved a positive return on Twin B Joe Fresh, who strolled into the stretch without a doubt the winner in the first of two divisions of the $283,000 McWicked Bluegrass Stakes for freshman pacing fillies on Thursday afternoon (Sept. 29) at The Red Mile.
After shaking off a spate of bad luck and getting his first win a week ago, Designer Drink can be the toast of the town this weekend by making it a double in the $252,000 Pennsylvania Sire Stakes championship for two-year-old male trotters at Harrah’s Philadelphia on Sunday (Sept. 4)
A four-race maiden entering the race, Designer Drink shot through the "Lightning Lane" to spring a 10-1 upset in Friday’s (Aug. 26) $151,230 Pennsylvania Sires Stake (PASS) at Hollywood Casino at The Meadows. Once In A Lifetime captured the other division in the event for two-year-old trotting colts and geldings, known as the Florida Pro, giving Tim Tetrick a PASS sweep.
